  • The Impact of the New Panama Canal on Cost-Savings in the Shipping Industry
    the International Journal Volume 13 on Marine Navigation Number 3 http://www.transnav.eu and Safety of Sea Transportation September 2019 DOI: 10.12716/1001.13.03.07 The Impact of the New Panama Canal on Cost-savings in the Shipping Industry D. Zupanovic, L. Grbic & M. Baric University of Zadar, Zadar, Croatia ABSTRACT: The passage through the Panama Canal has become the usual waterway for all the ships that can navigate through the Canal. The traffic through the canal is limited by the size of a ship. The need for the expansion of the Canal has emerged due to the development of the global trade and the shipping industry. The new dimensions of the lock‐chambers determine the size of the ships as well. The new generation of ships built to the largest specifications possible to transit the current locks of the canal are called the Post‐Panamax vessels. The maximum dimensions of these ships are 366 meters in length, 49 meters in beam and 15.2 metres in draught. The paper analyses savings in the operational costs on three types of the Post‐Panamax vessels after the Canal expansion. 1 INTRODUCTION The construction of the new and expanded canal enabled the passage of the Post‐Panamax ships. The The construction of the Canal, which lasted for 34 navigation of this category became a standard in the years, introduced the shorter and more efficient route maritime industry and proved the Canal to be of great between the east and west coasts of the United States importance to the world shipping.

  • ENCHANTED PRINCESS FLOATS out in MONFALCONE Trieste, August 6, 2019 – Enchanted Princess, the Fifth Royal-Class S
    FINCANTIERI: ENCHANTED PRINCESS FLOATS OUT IN MONFALCONE Trieste, August 6, 2019 – Enchanted Princess, the fifth Royal-class ship built for the ship operator Princess Cruises, a brand within Carnival Corporation, floated out today at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Monfalcone. Interior fittings will now begin, leading the vessel to its delivery, scheduled in 2020. The ceremony was attended by Firouz Mal, Princess Cruises director new build services, while Fincantieri was represented, among others, by Roberto Olivari, director of the shipyard in Monfalcone. The Godmother of the ceremony was Miss Marinella Cossu, a historic employee of the yard. The new unit, at 145,000 gross tons, is built on the basis of the successful sister vessel project of Royal Princess, Regal Princess, Majestic Princess and the upcoming Sky Princess, built and delivered in the same shipyard starting from 2013, introducing a new generation of ships so well- received by the cruise passengers. Like its sister ships, the vessel will represent a new technological benchmark in Europe and worldwide for its innovative layout, outstanding performances and the top quality of its state-of-the- art marine technology. It will be the best proof that innovation and customer care are fundamental levers in showcasing market leadership and will further consolidate Fincantieri’s long-time partnership with Carnival Corporation, the world's largest cruise ship operator and leisure travel company. The partnership between the Monfalcone yard and Princess Cruises will continue with two next- generation cruise ships. These will be the largest built so far in Italy with a gross-tonnage of 175,000 tons, expected to be delivered at the end of 2023 and in spring 2025.
